Barnet is a large, leafy borough in north London stretching from Finchley and Hendon out to High Barnet. The M1 and A1 make Luton and Stansted convenient, while Heathrow lies to the south-west. We collect from any Barnet address and track your flight on every airport pickup.
By road distance, London City is usually the shortest run from Barnet, though the fastest journey on the day depends on traffic and which motorway corridor you take — a numerically closer airport can still be the slower option if it means crossing London rather than joining a direct route. Here is roughly how each of the six compares, in normal traffic:
London City — about 19 miles (30–45 min by road), to the north-west of Barnet.
Heathrow — about 21 miles (35–55 min by road), to the north-east of Barnet.
Luton — about 23 miles (35–55 min by road), to the south-south-east of Barnet.
Stansted — about 30 miles (40–60 min by road), to the south-west of Barnet.
Gatwick — about 40 miles (50–80 min by road), to the north of Barnet.
Southend — about 45 miles (60–95 min by road), to the west of Barnet.
The busiest times for Barnet are weekday rush hours, when the main approach roads carry commuter traffic alongside airport and local journeys. If you are travelling before 8am or after 5pm on a weekday, it pays to leave a little earlier; evenings, weekends and school holidays tend to move more freely. We plan the timing either way, so the fixed fare and the pickup time both hold.
Nothing about the pickup is left to chance: the meeting point is agreed in advance, and on airport legs we track the flight so the timing matches your real arrival, not the timetable. Plan for the usual airport process around the journey itself — security and check-in outbound, passport control and baggage inbound — which is exactly what the free waiting allowance in your fare is there for.
Groups and luggage are worth mentioning at booking rather than working out on the day: a saloon suits up to four people and two large cases comfortably, while an estate, MPV or 8-seater gives more room for extra bags, buggies or sports kit. School holidays and the summer season tend to bring more group and family travel on this kind of journey, so booking a little further ahead helps guarantee the right-sized vehicle at a time that suits you.

A car kept at your disposal with hourly hire.
A connection on to a cruise port or hotel.
